I’m not a Trekkie but I’ve done enough basic research into the Star Trek fandom to know women basically invented it, and are why the show even continued to exist. This kind of writing is part of institutional sexism that denies women’s accomplishments and role in history and it infuriates me
okay grandpa, let's get you to bed

At New York Comic Con, we asked: How does Star Trek inspire you? 🖖🌍

From lifelong Trekkies to one of Star Trek’s newest stars, Starfleet Academy cast member Kerrice Brooks, Trek has inspired many of us to dream big and lead with empathy.

If humanity ever hopes to reach its full potential, we must set aside prejudice, hatred, and fear of the unfamiliar.

With an eye towards the stars, we’ll never stop learning and exploring for the sake of all humankind.

Our whole vibe:
We have inadvertently referenced Star Trek.

When the government can silence one artist, it threatens freedom for all.

Glad to see it! The blue states are stepping up where the federal government has failed us.

The Star Trek franchise is actually sort of ambivalent about the extent to which Starfleet is a military organization but one thing it’s clear about is that while Starfleet has military elements, its primary job is curiosity, exploration, and to function as Federstion ambassadors to the galaxy

The tricorder is not simply a Star Trek prop we all wish we had, but a reality to come.

Over 15 years, we’ve provided millions of dollars in funding for extraordinary projects that are saving lives around the world, including these three ventures!

On this day in 1921, Eugene Wesley Roddenberry Sr. was born in El Paso, Texas.

At a time when it feels like scarcity and human suffering will never come to an end, Gene’s legacy dares us to dream bigger and create a better future.

Happy Birthday, Gene. 🖖

I've been wanting to rework my "Friend of Dax" design for a while, and I'm finally ready to share it. New enamel pins should be here in time for pride month. I'll also be ordering shirts; if you want to make sure you get one, preorders are 10% off and will ship in 4-5 weeks.

Bigfoot is real
What if in a Star Trek they just casually revealed that Bigfoot was real. Someone just mentions it to make a point or something, like "well people didn't think bigfoot existed until 2078". And then they never bring it up again, but canonically in the Star Trek universe, Bigfoot exists now.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.
